Moonkissed – A poem by Abhiram

Yesterday, we shared silence again

After ages – effortlessly

‘Neath the stars, amidst swinging trees

Leaves falling – steadily

And you asked why I was smiling so

Unending – tirelessly

All I can say, is you fit here

In the moment – perfectly

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

You made me wait, I didn’t mind

Counted breaths – patiently.

And then you walked towards me bright

Like snowy Christmas come early.

In joy, I was grinning to ears

Unending – tirelessly

For darling, you fit into place here

In this moment – perfectly.

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

We ate, we drank, we laughed out loud

Time flew by – merrily

And later on, we stumbled back home

Walking not quite steadily.

Maybe you wondered, why oh why

Are his eyes shining so brightly

My answer, darling, is you fit here

In this moment – perfectly

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

You shared with me, your hopes and dreams

Childlike, innocent – candidly.

You shared your fears, your tears, your past

All your idiosyncrasies.

I knew right then, I’d sit here forever

Listening to you endlessly.

For tonight, love, you fit so right

In this moment – perfectly.

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

Of chaos, of darkness, of fire you are

Burning so capriciously.

You fly, you fall, you rise again

Soaring on ambitiously.

You laugh at all the pain and strain

Weeping but little – belatedly.

Darling, you fit into place right here

In this moment – perfectly.

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

I remember seeing you for the first time

Rushed out of bed – hurriedly.

Dressed for comfort, hair in a bun

Notebooks clutched precariously.

Even then, your smile filled me with warmth

Aura shining – radiantly

I said to myself, by the Gods

She laughs so beautifully.

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.

I want only to understand your soul

See you in dreams – serendipitously.

Perchance name your secret heart

And glean what guides your infinity.

I’m still sitting here, grinning to ears

Struck quite dumb – rapturously.

For tonight, love, you fit so right

In this moment – perfectly.

Starlit.

Moonkissed.

Beautiful.
